Chapter 305 Chapter 305 Behemoth
Day 4
The building is out of ammunition and food
Hunger constantly irritated everyone's nerves, and both refugees and staff members fell into the abyss of despair.
The tsunami that brings disaster seems to have no end. It disappears and appears, appears and disappears again, always giving people the most painful blow when they think they have survived the disaster.
Frequent tsunamis, turbulent floods and occasional thunderstorms prevented the rescue teams from getting close. The distance between the orange lifeboat and the building was both close and far away.
The survivors were in a state of near mental collapse.
"Look, there are helicopters. There are several helicopters coming from the sky!"
"There's a helipad on the roof. A plane must be coming to rescue us. We're saved!"
The noisy roar was like a sharp knife that cut through the pain and despair in everyone's hearts.
Everyone excitedly rushed to the rooftop, jostling and pushing each other along the way. Looking down from above, the sea of heads looked like a dense school of migrating fish in a river.
"Aren't we going?"
Tian Qingwen was a little anxious. She was afraid that she would miss the best time for rescue and would be doomed if the tsunami came back again.
"Helicopters are not here to rescue people."
He Junxia gestured for her to look out the window at the dark clouds. Most of the sky had been obscured, with only a few cracks letting a glimmer of light through.
"It's going to rain heavily."
As soon as the words fell, there was a roar of thunder and a flash of lightning streaked across the world, making it as bright as day.
Tian Qingwen shrank uncontrollably.
She is very afraid of thunder.
Even though she knew that the probability of being struck by lightning was even smaller than winning a five million lottery ticket, she was still terrified when she heard the roar like that of a prehistoric beast.
"Jiang Zhiyang, how long do you think it will take us to leave this building?"
Perhaps because they had been together for a long time, the two of them changed from calling each other Mr. Jiang and Ms. Tian to their real names.
"At least wait until the weather gets better."
Tsunamis, floods and thunderstorms occurred one after another, and no matter how anxious the rescue team was, they dared not act rashly.
Tian Qingwen's eyes drooped again.
Oh, heaven, oh, earth, please give me some pleasure.
No, forget it.
Dear God, please don't be so hasty. Please take your time and evacuate the tsunami first.
God did not answer, but expressed his attitude with several loud thunders.
Why rush? There's still fun to be had.
The view came to the helipad on the top floor, where a large group of people were rushing to grab space, fearing that they would be left behind by the rescue team.
Little did they know that they had taken up most of the space on the apron, so even if a helicopter wanted to land it wouldn't be able to do so.
"Help!"
"We are so hungry, please save us."
"Everyone please move aside and be careful not to get hit by anything. We will be emptying the supplies."
The sound of a broadcast came from the helicopter. Some people were ecstatic and moved by the arrival of the food, while others were very disappointed and angry.
Why can't they be taken away?
Obviously a helicopter can come over, so it would be easy to take them away.
Spending taxpayers' money and just wanting to put some food away and leave is simply treating people's lives as a joke!
Not only were these people cursing in their hearts, but when they saw the helicopter about to leave, they immediately started cursing at the plane like exploding balloons.
Did the people on the plane hear it?
I heard it.
But there are more places that need to deliver supplies, and she doesn't have the time, nor the ability, to argue with the emotionally agitated disaster victims.
If possible, she would do her best to take all the affected people away from the danger zone as soon as possible, even now. However, in extreme thunderstorms, a single mistake could result in a plane crash and the death of everyone involved.
All the helicopter pilots involved in the operation wrote suicide notes, but they could not let the trapped people who were still safe take such a huge risk.
The helicopter left, but the large amount of supplies delivered by the plane successfully alleviated the food shortage.
The building's manager took a firm stance, and the joint security team took control of all the supplies that were airdropped, and any attempt to hide the supplies was not allowed.
Those who grabbed the supplies were very unwilling to give up.
They robbed the supplies distributed by the state, so why should they listen to others and hand them over?
However, those who managed to grab supplies were only a minority after all, and the majority of people who gained nothing supported the building manager's decision. No matter how reluctant they were, they had to obey the majority.
Otherwise, the anger of the general public will not let you go.
No one seeks justice for those who are beaten to death.
Of course, the benefits of centralized distribution are also very obvious - it may not feed everyone, but it can ensure that everyone has something to eat and does not suffer from hunger.
Smoke rose from the building again, and hungry people impatiently lined up in long queues, staring eagerly at the boiling pot.
It smells so good!
He Junxia and Tian Qingwen smelled the aroma of food wafting downstairs, but neither of them planned to go downstairs to queue up for the food.
There were some biscuits and bread in their room to fill their stomachs, so they had enough food and drink to last at least another week.
Although there is no noble virtue of sharing food with others, it is only natural not to snatch the limited food resources of others when one has abundant resources.
Only a shameless person would do that.
He Junxia opened the instant noodle box, crushed the round noodles into pieces, and ate them with a sip of water and a mouthful of noodles.
The man was in a bad mood.
It was not because of the tasteless dry noodles, but because a bird from afar brought a message.
He sensed the presence of a powerful creature.
Right in the depths of the ocean.
He Junxia immediately realized that this continuous strange tsunami was probably closely related to the powerful creatures in the deep ocean.
This is good news. Yao Ling can finally eat high-energy food.
This is rather bad news. The beautiful and pleasant coastal city in the wisher's memory cannot escape the fate of being destroyed after all.
No wonder it was rated as a Class A disaster world.
[Xiao Si, thank you.]
[Why are you thanking me? I didn’t do anything!]
The man's slightly flustered tone contained a hint of confession, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose.
Thank you for choosing me as your tasker, for always being by my side, and for being my anchor of mental stability.
[It helps me not to forget myself and my past experiences in the chaotic world of quests.]
[So that’s how it is, so scary…]
[Host, I also want to thank you. I am no longer a helpless wild ruler.]
[Since I've been linked to you, I've leveled up twice and even gained a few system followers!]
He Junxia chuckled and bought a lot of food, drinks and toys for the small system that operated behind the scenes, and asked it to share it with its younger friends.
There are many wonderful coincidences in the world, but when coincidences occur too often, they become inevitable.
He didn't think he was so lucky that just after the previous mission world had hatched the dying divine beast egg, the next mission world could make up for the little divine beast's congenital deficiencies.
If I had such good luck, I wouldn't have been so unlucky as to have my aorta pierced by a patient causing trouble for the doctor and died.
It’s all tears if I talk too much.
He Junxia asked the excited little fat bird not to get close to the sea for the time being, as the ocean is not the home ground of birds.
Based on his experience in carrying out missions, this mysterious and powerful marine creature will inevitably come onto land and cause serious conflicts with coastal cities.
That will be Yao Ling's chance.
He Junxia put away the empty bottle of mineral water and began to think about what to do next - the appearance of the mysterious creature disrupted his plans, and sitting and waiting for death was not his style.
Just as he calmed down to think, lightning and thunder flashed outside the building, strong winds blew, and dark clouds moved quickly to cover the entire sky.
It was completely dark.
Heavy rain
The rain fell to the ground like beads that had broken off the string. The already turbulent flood became even more turbulent. The landscape trees that could not bear the weight collapsed when another thunder sounded.
The broken branches rushed away impatiently, and the thick trunks remained in place to form a small dam. The debris piled up in all directions, but still could not stop the pace of the flood.
Where should the trapped humans go?
Fortunately, God grants our wishes.
As the saying goes, when you are surrounded by mountains and rivers and think there is no way out, you will find another village when you turn around.
The twelve-hour thunderstorm ended, the dark clouds that covered the sky suddenly dispersed, the sky was bright, and the bright and warm sunshine came into view.
The sky cleared up and the water leveled down
The breeze is gentle and the sun is shining. If you ignore the muddy flood, everything is so harmonious.
Cheers rang out one after another
Everyone knew that the best time for rescue had come.
